Bota Kids: a unique cultural morning for young audiences.
Well-known for its concert and art exhibition programming, Le Botanique is developing the "Bota Kids" project, an introduction to music and the visual arts for the very young, enabling them to discover the world of concerts and exhibitions at their own level. It's a real opportunity for children to discover what their parents usually come to see in our glass house, through an adapted formula.
AN INTRODUCTION TO MUSIC FOR THE CHILDREN
In a fast-paced society, Grégoire Gerstmans deliberately slows down time.
Grégoire grew up surrounded by music. Alone with his piano, somewhere between modernity and respect for tradition, he draws out the dream in all of us through the minimalist purity of his melody. His live show is punctuated by electro touches and soundtracks combining everyday life and text.
Passionate about music, painting, videography and photography, Grégoire creates his own visual universe and attaches great importance to the interaction between image and sound. His main artistic references are Arvo Pärt, Aphex Twin and Philip Glass, as well as Bill Viola and Yves Klein.
At Bota, Grégoire will be presenting his debut album 'Hypnagogie', due for release on 29 November on the PIAS label.
ATELIER CRÉATIF AVEC PAUL GERARD
L'exposition _ Mécaniques Discursives
Le projet Mécaniques Discursives a rassemblé pendant près de dix ans Fred Penelle et Yannick Jacquet, deux plasticiens aux pratiques autant éloignées que complémentaires: la gravure sur bois et la création numérique contemporaine. De ce travail à quatre mains débuté en 2011, les deux artistes ont créé un monde graphique déroutant et résolument contemporain, qui transcende les âges et les modes. En jetant un regard plein d’ironie sur notre société, les artistes ont développé un vocabulaire étoffé, et sans concessions, comme une parenthèse entre deux époques, celle de Gutenberg et celle des « big data ».
